Fetal Urinary Ascites From Bladder Rupture: A Rare Complication of Posterior Urethral Valve.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Prenatal ultrasonography (USG) plays a crucial role in diagnosing fetal urinary tract anomalies and distinguishing between lower urinary tract obstructive (LUTO) and neurological causes (seen with spinal dysraphism, myelomeningocele, meningocele, and sacral agenesis) of urinary bladder distension. Fetal urinary ascites, a rare but severe complication, can result from bladder rupture associated with obstructive uropathy such as posterior urethral valves (PUV). This case study presents a rare instance of fetal urinary ascites due to PUV detected during prenatal ultrasonography at 20 weeks of gestation (WOG). By highlighting this uncommon but clinically significant condition, we aim to enhance the understanding and management of similar cases in clinical practice.
